New survey reveals top 50 skills that make a ‘great dad’

A new survey has been released revealing the must-have skills to make a ‘great dad’.

If this new list is anything to go by there’s some serious pressure on dads these days to be pretty much perfect for their kids.

According to the research, as children get older they look to their fathers to do more and more for them such as fixing bike punctures, putting up tents and setting up wifi.

This new information has come from a survey of 2,000 dads from the makers of kids-favourite TV programme Bob the Builder, in which it transpired that half of fathers felt like they had let their child down when unable to fix a toy.

‘The huge list of dad skills show just how many roles dads have to fill in the upbringing of their children. They’re fixers, builders, comedians, sportsmen, the list is endless,’ a spokesperson for the children’s programme said.
